    Need help identifying screwdriver manufacturer.

    Building sets for kids

    Barcalo Buffalo Tools

    I've been going through my older wrenches. Putting them together by maker. I'm thinking of narrowing my searches to make a set of.....something. That way I can possibly sell/trade some to others who need them. Anyway, this is my small assortment of Barcalo/Barcalo Buffalo

    Lets see your vintage shop work lights

    I just found this thread. It is great! I am a guy who really likes vintage flashlights (though I don't have much in the way of any). I only relatively recently started into vintage tools. So this thread is a lot of fun.
